Aluminum siding looks beautiful when it's new, but once it starts to age, it can appear tired and faded. The good news is you can turn back the hands of time with a little elbow grease, cleaning, and a few good coats of paint. Aluminum siding is prevalent in our Chicago suburbs because it's insulating against the frigid winters. Plus, it's low maintenance - but not maintenance-free. You still need to keep it clean and repair any damage right away.
Before you start painting, make sure you have all the windows covered and any roof sections that might be exposed to paint.
You'll need two different types of paint for results that will last for years.Use a premium brand of paint like Sherwin Williams, Behr, or Benjamin Moore. The oil-based paint is applied directly to the siding to act as a barrier between the siding and acrylic paint. Once the oil paint is completely dry, apply the acrylic-based paint. Don't use the acrylic paint directly on the siding because it will bubble, fade, and peel.
